the mammo showed teeny tiny microcalicifications - this was my 1st digital which does show much more than the old film ones did. i can actually look at my mammograms and make some sense of them - they don't just look like cumulus clouds to me. i take tamoxifen, which is supposed to reduce my risk. youngest sis dies of it at 37, mm dies of ovarian cancer, and sis had a BRCA mutation.

1:04 am

FranMag

yay, found the ca6/7 combo, thanks doc and MM!

Hi stid! New machine! Vista???!!!!

2:17 am

featherbee

they were waking me up, so i decided to do something productive. getting out of bed seems to have slowed them down however, so more false labor.

2:17 am

BabbleRabble

ra 6 -- rodent and a queue: ***e; pl

2:17 am

moolingwa

she was contracted to come on here stids

2:17 am

2:18 am

hi stid

2:18 am

2:25 am

i'm not saying anything about the false labor yet on the blog, as i'm kinda keeping a few relatives in the dark about that.....

2:25 am

featherbee

yep fran!

2:26 am

FranMag

it could be a couple more days, don't want everyone getting too excited yet.

2:26 am

GroovyKiwi

i never got to feel what falsies were like lol both my boys arrived early and quick lol

2:26 am

featherbee

and i know they check on me there!

2:26 am

GroovyKiwi

kieran was 5 hours start to finish and logan was 56 min

2:26 am

stidmama

okay feather, I will haunt your blog until I hear or read that you and percy are well and home. It's wise to wait until you're sure I think... otherwise people get their hopes up. *whistles to emphasize my own hopes are precisely where they ought to be*

2:26 am

featherbee

lol stid

2:26 am

FranMag

wow kiwi! must have been all the good food. :-)

2:27 am

jillibus

feather, is the little one Percy?

2:27 am

featherbee

that's his in utero nickname.

2:27 am

stidmama

I think that is such a blessing kiwi, my first labor was 36 hours give or take and complicated. The second about four hours and perfect! I much preferred the second experience.

2:27 am

FranMag

lol, she's gonna have to call him that here. no one wants to use his real name. :-)

2:27 am

featherbee

i'm superstitious, don't like using the "real" name. good thing too, as it did a late date change.

2:27 am

GroovyKiwi

well with logan i think it was the fact that the specialist was worried about his erratic heartbeat and said that they would induce him in the morning.... 10 min later my waters broke and he was outta there - 6 pushes lol

2:28 am

stidmama

we aren't jinxing things, Jill, by telling folks his real name is Ignatius Nathaniel (Iggy-Natty for short)... *wicked grin*

2:28 am

featherbee

you're right fran, nobody will know who i'm talking about!

2:28 am

FranMag

LOL stid!

2:29 am

stidmama

*hoping that neither of those is his real name...*

2:29 am

featherbee

*thwacks stid lightly yet again today*

2:29 am

stidmama

well someone has to be Nut while she sleeps!

2:29 am

featherbee

the top runners right now are nicholas james, nicholas michael, nicholas logan

2:29 am

GroovyKiwi

because i had had two miscarriages before Kieran we decided to find out what we were having, and right up until 6 weeks before i gave birth the specialist told me he was a girl lol

2:29 am

FranMag

all great names heather

2:29 am

featherbee

oh, this guy is DEFINITELY a boy, lol!

2:30 am

stidmama

I like those names and combos, strong but sensitive, current but not trendy.

2:30 am

jillibus

looks as if nicholas is a winner whatever

2:30 am

GroovyKiwi

then on the next scan he was umming and arhing and turned to me and said i hate to tell you this and my heart started pounding, but something is hanging down which wasnt hanging down before and your having a boy now lol

2:30 am

FranMag

just don't wait two weeks to see what he "looks" like

2:30 am

melonheadjujube

got the ra7 tx to lickety still stumped by the ital pa 6/7 what's wrong w/me!

2:30 am

featherbee

2:30 am

FranMag

2:31 am

jillibus

thought you had left, melon!

2:31 am

GroovyKiwi

the 6/21 or the 6/27 melon

2:31 am

FranMag

melon, pa + form of "to be" + indefinite article for the pa6

2:31 am

GroovyKiwi

oh you mean the 6/7 combo

2:31 am

FranMag

i like nicholas james heather

2:32 am

FranMag

brb, son wants juice

2:32 am

GroovyKiwi

im partial to nicholas logan lolol

2:32 am

stidmama

Well I like the last one because of the last name (my favorite berry type); I like the first one because it is solid and not unusual; I like the middle one because it seems "old school" -- but I am not sure of the michael bit - that name can be a bit dodgy.

2:32 am

featherbee

why lol kiwi?

2:32 am

GroovyKiwi

cause ive got my own logan lol

2:32 am

featherbee

our last name is scottish, starts with a "mac" if that helps. mac-1syllable

2:32 am

jillibus

why is michael dodgy?

2:33 am

featherbee

ahh!

2:33 am

GroovyKiwi

but mine is logan timothy russell and kieran is kieran thomas manning

2:33 am

GroovyKiwi

i stuck my poor boys with two middle names

2:33 am

featherbee

i have two middle names

2:33 am

stidmama

Most of the "Michael" (Mike, Mikey, Mick) people I know are tricksters and unreliable if not outright drug addicts. I do know a few very nice ones, but they are decidedly an exception.

2:34 am

featherbee

heather leah-anne

2:34 am

jillibus

My very favourite cousin, a brilliant Oxford don was Michael

2:34 am

stidmama

I dumped my first name when I became an adult and took my former last name as a middle name when I married (though I wish I had dumped it, too).

2:34 am

GroovyKiwi

nicolas michael mac... might be a bit of a tongue twister for him growing up

2:35 am

stidmama

Like I said, there are exceptions!

2:35 am

melonheadjujube

my bro and bro-in-law are very fine upright Michales thankyuuverymuch ;)

2:35 am

featherbee

daniel is daniel morgan mac---

2:36 am

FranMag

i like nicholas james because it flows really well, 3 syllables then one, then 2 for your last name, goes good together

2:36 am

stidmama

I think they are all good names feather -- why not let Percy tell you which one is his when he arrives?

2:36 am

GroovyKiwi

well my vote is for logan with james coming a close second (james is my nephews first name )

2:36 am

featherbee

think that's what's gonna happen stid

2:36 am

MVA

i like the name

2:36 am

jillibus

watch out for initials -- my parents considered calling me Jean Elizabeth but thought the initials JEM might cause teasing, so I got GLM instead (glum)!

2:37 am

GroovyKiwi

in their own ways they are all good names

2:37 am

MVA

logan, oops pressed enter too quick!!

2:37 am

stidmama

and such a dour person Jill is too, in person -- yes, DO be careful of the initials/anagrams!

your nana wasnt from upper hutt by any chance? lol

2:39 am

FranMag

i'm named after my father's mother and my mother's grandmother

2:39 am

stidmama

perhaps BR, perhaps... names should suit people though and there are some people born to be clowns and actors (like my second, who has an actor's name); and other born to be accountants and scientists (like my first who has a scholar's name). My boys have always had really strong, consistent personalities... naming either one "Jimmy" or "Bobby" would never have done!

2:39 am

featherbee

anyone have the A word from the middle of those 3 As?

2:43 am

melonheadjujube

my son, Frederick, was named for my grampa, who died when i was 10 - I kept it in mind all the intervening years that if I had a boy, he would be a Fred.

2:43 am

FranMag

heather, it's a yoga position, it uses all the As, as5/10

2:44 am

GroovyKiwi

kieran is kieran thomas manning - thomas for ians father and manning from his mothers side of the family

2:45 am

jillibus

the middle A word is an4/4 I think

2:45 am

featherbee

oh, ty that was my last A babrab

2:45 am

GroovyKiwi

logan is logan timothy russell - timothy for my fav cousin who i adore and russell for my mentor growing up

2:45 am

FranMag

jilli, middle A is as5/10

2:45 am

melonheadjujube

yes, Fran it is. my sibs and I are past childbearing, but perhaps a grandkid will be named for my mom, Marilyn - that would be so sweet.

2:46 am

rururocks

hey feather... how about a clue on the a in the second row

2:46 am

FranMag

thanks babrab, i didn't have that one yet

2:46 am

melonheadjujube

or a grand niece.

2:46 am

featherbee

fran clued it ruru, the yoga position

2:46 am

Marilyn is a great name

2:46 am

GroovyKiwi

im so not anywhere near ready to even start thinking that my kieran is nearly 15 and god forbid i could be a granmother in 2 years - dont even wanna go there

2:46 am

melonheadjujube

this grid is full of anagrams - particularly the forward - backward variety.

2:47 am

FranMag

oh, sorry jilli

2:47 am

GroovyKiwi

but at least he doesnt have a proper girlfriend yet, just a crush on a young lady he goes to cadets with and shes 2 years older than him

2:47 am

featherbee

no, the middle A is the yoga position.

2:47 am

featherbee

trust me, i just entered it!

2:48 am

GroovyKiwi

and he is so antsy to turn old enough to go and join the army and that might keep him out of trouble for a few more years to come lol

2:48 am

rururocks

lol

2:49 am

FranMag

i think jilli meant middle of the list though

2:49 am

jillibus

yes, the A in the middle is the yoga position, but it's the A to the right of the other two As, right?

2:49 am

BabbleRabble

escapades in the service had taught many to skirt trouble, if not get caught in the thick of it

2:49 am

rururocks

5:41 am

The kitten has a name Pandora I dont like it it sounds trashy. Thinking of changing it to Gabriel

5:41 am

carleekat

5:43 am

carleekat

I know that it sounds dirty but Pandora sounds like a hooker name

5:45 am

shorty

wasn't there 147 yesterday?

5:46 am

herinfernallady

not sure shorty

5:46 am

carleekat

I think of the vampire chronicles ...

5:47 am

herinfernallady

I think Gabriel is more regal but she is used to Pandora and shes nuts so i think the name has been chosen for her

5:47 am

herinfernallady

I found a cool outdoor cat play pen for her to play in

5:48 am

carleekat

nice..... and pandora is a nice name

5:48 am

carleekat

Classical Mythology. the first woman, created by Hephaestus, endowed by the gods with all the graces and treacherously presented to Epimetheus along with a box (originally a jar) in which Prometheus had confined all the evils that could trouble humanity. As the gods had anticipated, Pandora gave in to her curiosity and opened the box, allowing the evils to escape, thereby frustrating the efforts of Prometheus. In some versions, the box contained blessings, all of which escaped but hope.

5:50 am

herinfernallady

Yep Pandoras box. :) I dont like the name that much but i believe cats have their name chosen for them for a reason. The poor mite was going to be dumped at the pound

5:50 am

carleekat

"curiosity killed the cat"

Would that be getting it sprayed, neutralised or splootered?

6:09 am

carleekat

<POMPOM TOSS> for emti

6:09 am

Haz1558

All being terms used to me by clients enquiring about cost of 'getting them fixed'.

6:09 am

Atalante

them? the clients?

6:09 am

sprite

neutralised... argh!

6:10 am

Haz1558

Not the clients, the patients. Subtle, though essential difference.

6:10 am

herinfernallady

neutered and her immunization needles too. Sorry i couldnt think of the right word

6:10 am

sprite

in some instances it wouldn't hurt for the clients too.

6:10 am

rolin

ooops...its kinda big...in my excitement i didnt scale it down..if its a prom herin..lemme know...but its on its way

6:10 am

Ogdens Nut

Hi Haz, I will have to come to your husband when i need splootered...

6:10 am

herinfernallady

True sprite.

6:11 am

Haz1558

Sprite! What a thing to say about our dear clients.

6:11 am

herinfernallady

The cat is a dumpee twice over

6:11 am

Haz1558

I'll be sure to negotiate a discount for you, Zen.

6:11 am

sprite

*acts as if in shame, hiding a smile*
Sorry Haz, sorry...

6:11 am

Ogdens Nut

did one of his clients make that word up ?

6:12 am

Haz1558

Zen - somebody did once ask how much it would cost to get a cat splootered.

6:12 am

greenbayladi

clue for as 5/10

6:12 am

sprite

splootered... would be some babble word!

6:12 am

Haz1558

One of the best was when a sheep farmer declared that his ewe was having difficulty lambing and might need a sectarian operation.

6:13 am

Atalante

looooool was it a catholic or protestant ewe?

6:13 am

Haz1558

I'm assuming it's a cross between spayed and neutered, but it does conjure up images of innards flying.

6:13 am

herinfernallady

We are going to make an outside run for her to and lead train her

6:13 am

Haz1558

I don't know, but they wore balaclavas for the op.

6:14 am

Atalante

LOOL

6:14 am

sprite

LOL Haz! You should collect those... you could publish an absolute bestseller!

6:14 am

Ogdens Nut

excellent one Haz

6:15 am

Haz1558

The clients help to keep us amused!

6:16 am

herinfernallady

Due to the fact we are going away at the end of this week we are leaving her in her surrounds. Snitty little witch today

6:16 am

Atalante

jesdragon said something vsimilar in her LJ:
"Spade" is a small tool for the moving of dirt. It is not, unless things go horribly wrong, used in the context of an ovariohysterectomy, or spay. The only way in which your cat was "spaded" is if you hit it with a shovel. I will not be hitting your pet with a shovel, so do not present her to me to be "spaded".
Also, since by definition a spay is the removal of ovaries and uterus, I will not be able to spay your male pet. I can probably, however, arrange a castration.

6:17 am

sprite

LOLLLLL wonderful Ata! Funny jes :)

6:17 am

herinfernallady

Ata i was thinking the same thing thats why i didnt used spayed. I was going to say 'desexed'

6:17 am

Haz1558

I hate people saying 'If we bring her in, will the vet take a look at her?' Do they really want him/her just to take a cursory glance?

6:18 am

sprite

"No ma'm, we never look at pets here. It is an eyes-off practice here. But while we go by feel, we usually get it right, so don't worry."

6:18 am

herinfernallady

I think the reponse is 'if the dog is entire then it has its janglies thus said janglies need to be removed'

6:19 am

Atalante

a look? certainly ma'am. *looks* yes, very pretty

6:20 am

lizmac

Morning all, just popping in to say hi just now. Haz, it's the same with me, people keep asking me to have a look at them LOL.

6:20 am

Ogdens Nut

Ata, reminds me of the time a stranger in N.I. was walking down a street and was asked " are you a Catholic or Protestant?" " Neither", he said, "I'm a Jew". "Yeah, but are you a Catholic Jew or a Protestant Jew?"

6:20 am

sprite

hi liz!

6:20 am

Haz1558

Hello liz!

6:20 am

sprite

LOL Zen!

6:20 am

herinfernallady

One of my male friends said 'it would be best if the cat had a litter first' There was the response of 'bollocks'

6:20 am

Haz1558

Well, it is important to establish which foot you kick with, Zen!!

6:21 am

RA5/14 agaiiiiiiiiiii (claps hand over mouth)

6:24 am

sprite

ah well Zen, it does look good on you

6:25 am

Ogdens Nut

If i went to your husband,Haz, I might get splootered !

6:26 am

Atalante

might be good for you!

6:26 am

Haz1558

They do provide a kind of walk-in stitching up service - none of them have any patience for waiting in A and E to get cuts stitched, so they tend to do the job themselves.

6:27 am

Haz1558

For vets and staff, I hasten to add!

6:27 am

herinfernallady

Haz does the husband still use white plastic cones for the desexed pet?

6:28 am

Haz1558

Elizabethan collar? It depends.

6:28 am

carra

ap 5.16?

6:28 am

herinfernallady

Wow it has a technical name instead of 'cone head'

6:29 am

Haz1558

It's just a way of stopping them ripping the lovingly inserted stitches.

hi all -- have to share, speaking of Queen's English. Took daughter and son-in-law to tour historic colonial home this week, and our tour guide was an elderly Brittish woman who married a man from the U.S. It was a bit ironic to hear her impart the story about the Revoluntionary War, though she referred once to the "rebellion."

Oh yes, Haz -- one of the others in our group started to giggle, and the tour guide did laugh and share a bit of the history she learned as a child -- from the 'other side'.

6:45 am

Haz1558

The true version of events? It's always interesting to see that there's more than one point of view.

6:45 am

carra

y

6:45 am

Atalante

there's only ever truth from a particular point of view

6:45 am

6:48 am

ch1212

Both son-in-law and daughter are teaching now, so they were quite interested in the historical contexts. Also toured Concord Museum and to their credit, the short introductory film was balanced with both the "redcoats" and "patriots" view of events.

6:49 am

herinfernallady

Haz1558

And it begins with the sort of fabric, highly patterned, named after a town in Scotland.

6:51 am

movieman

doesn't help sprite

6:52 am

Haz1558

First letters (four) as of the fabric, last three letters, those of King of Siam governess, minus the consonant.

6:52 am

movieman

6:52 am

sprite

like the redcoated man (non political) who is around in December... drop last consonant. That gives you the healthy ending.

Ogdens Nut

Byeeee

7:15 am

Atalante

bye goldies!

7:16 am

herinfernallady

Zen LEAVE OFF. Goldies is a paid memeber and if you dont like him (it is him right?) bog off

7:16 am

carleekat

GOLDIESSSSSSSSSSSS...HOW r u?

7:16 am

carleekat

{HUGS} how was camp?

7:16 am

pinkhatlil

dont go goldies

7:17 am

carleekat

bloody hell...I was away from my desk

7:17 am

Atalante

and don't you be rude either, herin. everyone has their opinions

7:17 am

Ogdens Nut

herein, what is amemeber ?

7:17 am

herinfernallady

member sorry

7:18 am

herinfernallady

What me saying leave off is rude and telling someone ' Oh jeepers, Goldies is back !' ok i see its adult being children hour

7:19 am

Atalante

bog off is kinda rude! I just thought Zenmed meant gosh, goldies is back

7:20 am

ch1212

So did I -- I didn't read it as particulary

7:21 am

ch1212

negative .... (I add, having hit the enter button too soon) :)

7:21 am

Ogdens Nut

you entirely misunderstand - I did not say i disliked goldies; if you or goldies want to take that interpretation that is only your mindset...

7:22 am

ch1212

Sometimes it's easy to misinterpret tone of voice in our chat. I know I do that at times. No harm intended though -- overall we're a pretty nice bunch :D

7:22 am

Atalante

its ok, zen, some people seem get a bit sensitive around the issue of goldies

7:22 am

sprite

jeezzz... I listen to a song and all of a sudden it is a row here... I did not see anyting rude about Zen's entry.

7:22 am

Ogdens Nut

And I take exception to be told to bog off.

7:22 am

carleekat

( Not to upset anyone.... but i think we have to remember that Goldies is a kid...and language kids use is not as strong at "bog off" and jeepers...could be construed by an 11 year old to be the voice of irritated adult...)

7:23 am

sprite

I wouldn't want you to bog off, Zen. Keep both your ambifeetrous extremities here, please.

7:24 am

ch1212

what does that term mean? Seriously, I'm inferring it's a kind of put down, but is it a Brit term?

7:24 am

carleekat

I think....zen's reaction to bog off....is probably equivalent to a kid 's perspective to a non threatening "jeepers"

7:24 am

Atalante

jeepers creepers! isnt that american?

7:24 am

KristineNas

May I please have a clue for the Pa 7,32 ?

7:25 am

carleekat

female of the 6 before it kristine

7:25 am

Ogdens Nut

what rubbish, carleekat

7:25 am

herinfernallady

Sorry but the way it was written (since jeepers is a term of annoyance) followed by ! in general English typed means rude. Jeepers is a polite way of saying 'Jesus' and well you can extend that anyway you wish

7:25 am

KristineNas

um I don't have that one either :-/

7:25 am

ch1212

kristine, Haz clued earlier as the first part of a highly detailed patterned fabric, plus the governess in the King and I minus one of the consonants.

7:26 am

carleekat

its an italian term

7:26 am

KristineNas

yeah i didnt get the king and i reference

7:26 am

ch1212

I meant the 'bog off' part -- what does that mean?

7:26 am

ch1212

sorry, kristine -- it's a girl's name starting with first vowel

7:26 am

Atalante

it means "go away" said in a not very poilte tone of voice

7:26 am

herinfernallady

Bog off - go away.

7:27 am

ch1212

Ahhhh.... got it. Thanks, herin :)

7:27 am

sprite

it is kind of a series pa5/12, 6/21, 7/32. The 5 is like what is happening in semi spanish Que P**** with an extra vowel inserted. The rest build on it.

7:27 am

ch1212

And ata

7:27 am

KristineNas

ok ty let me work on it , i'm rather dense today not your fault lol

7:28 am

sprite

or... for the 7... think of the redcoated man of Xmas and leave out last consonant for the ending of the 7.

7:29 am

sprite

for the start of the P7: if you have given money to obtain something, it is p*** for. Drop last letter.

7:29 am

Ogdens Nut

thank you sprite, i have no intention of "bogging off" when told to by an impolite and nonsensical "lady"

7:29 am

KristineNas

ok got the 5 lol

7:29 am

KristineNas

got the 6

7:30 am

Atalante

we loves you Zen

7:30 am

ch1212

Om mane padmi om, zen :)

7:30 am

KristineNas

and the 7 ty for your patience !

7:30 am

Ogdens Nut

Ooooh, I feel better now, Ata!

7:30 am

sprite

hey Zen, I like you lots... perhaps it would help to remember that things put in writing are usually harsher sounding than they would when in spoken form...

7:31 am

sprite

woot Kristine!

7:32 am

ch1212

Say, not to change the subject (or rather, to) but we had our first experience with Amtrak yesterday, and the train was 1.5 hours LATE getting to the station. Is that normal? My daughter and son-in-law were taking it to NYC for a visit, and there were several of us standing in the sun all that time.

7:33 am

Ogdens Nut

yes sprite, but that is sometimes largely down to the reader's interpretation

7:33 am

sprite

wow, that does not sound like a great outing... at least not the standing part.

7:33 am

ch1212

The trains in Europe were always reasonably on time.

7:33 am

Atalante

urf, no fun at all!

7:33 am

ch1212

So I have to say, I'm not impressed with Amtrak at this point. Thought I'd see if any babblers have more experience with them.

7:34 am

Ogdens Nut

or the way the reader wants to interpret it as an expression of their personality...

7:34 am

Atalante

wah! no deep and meaningful psychology! its sunday!

7:35 am

sprite

true Zen! It is just that we miss the sound of voice, the way of looking... which often takes of the harshness. Not defending or accusing anyone, just saying let's not jump to conclusions, any of us, and keep in mind we are all way different people ;)

7:35 am

greenbayladi

clue for the second ta 6/21

7:35 am

sprite

it might cleanse our souls... ;P

7:36 am

ch1212

Speaking of Sunday, have to go shower and get ready for church. Happy hunting all, and ((hugs)) to everyone, especially Zen, herin, and goldie.

7:36 am

carleekat

just change the last vowel for ther 2nd ta6

7:36 am

sprite

have a good one, ch, it was nice to see you :)

7:37 am

Ogdens Nut

btw sprite, did you get "Imagica" yet ?

7:37 am

greenbayladi

ty carlee

7:38 am

sprite

is it Imagica or Imajica, Zen? I was just thinking of ordering it now, though right after the vacation might not be wise financially, LOL.

7:38 am

Atalante

Imajica

7:39 am

Atalante

I think? *sudden confusion moment*

7:39 am

hurshy

atalante, how COULD you? lol

7:39 am

sprite

thanks... going to bol.com now...

7:39 am

Ogdens Nut

I think it is spelt with a g, sprite

7:39 am

Atalante

must be imajining things then :)

7:39 am

Ogdens Nut

now i am confused too Ata

7:40 am

Atalante

its Imajica. just looked on amazon ;)

7:40 am

hurshy

i don't even know what it is and i think it's a g

7:40 am

hurshy

dang, guessed wrong

7:40 am

sprite

this is for real, guys. I was looking at my notes from the earlier discussion this very morning and wondered... why isn't it spelled ImaGica, I would go for it sooner because that would be understandable in fantasy sense... Imajica looked so... hawaiian :)

7:40 am

Atalante

*giggle*

7:40 am

sprite

hey hursh!

7:41 am

hurshy

but back to my original, unrelated comment... atalante, how COULD you?

7:41 am

hurshy

hi sprite

7:41 am

hurshy

how've you been?

7:41 am

Atalante

Zen, you *have* to read Perdido Street Station (China Mieville). If you love Imajica, you'll love PSS

7:41 am

Atalante

what did I do!!

7:41 am

KristineNas

~!~!~!~!~!FIREWORKS~!~!~!~!~!

7:41 am

Haz1558

Yes, how COULD you, Atalante?

7:41 am

Ogdens Nut

thanks ata, now i see it written down it looks right with the j

7:41 am

hurshy

511 words!!!!

7:42 am

Haz1558

(BLowed if I know, but thought I'd join in)

7:42 am

Atalante

and Tad Williams Otherland series - have you read those?

7:42 am

Atalante

LOOOOOOOL :):)

7:42 am

Haz1558

Light dawns. The peacock has arrived.

7:42 am

Atalante

lol yes, light dawning here too :)

7:42 am

hurshy

that's going to torment me for the rest of my life...

7:43 am

sprite

woooot KristineN!

7:43 am

Atalante

the answers are somwhere in the archives ;)

7:43 am

hurshy

oh it's a grid you pulled? phew.

7:43 am

inge

Guten Morgen, Babblers. Here I am missing my last word. The previous clues did not compute with me. Please give me a clue for dummies for the as 5/10

7:44 am

greenbayladi

good morning inge

7:44 am

Atalante

not telling you from when though ;)

7:44 am

sprite

Guten Morgen inge! That would be A + the Xmas man minus last consonant.

7:44 am

KristineNas

As + ban*** <fruit>

7:44 am

hurshy

lol

7:44 am

Haz1558

as5/10 - either a plus latin health, or as plus the beginning of French pineapple?

7:44 am

Ogdens Nut

thanks for the PSS advice ata; no i haven't read Tad Williams - is it good ?

7:44 am

Ogdens Nut

hang on, stupid question...

7:45 am

hurshy

atalante habitually asks people if they've read really horrid books just to trap them

7:45 am

sprite

lollll... like "No it stinks, but we just want you to keep occupied" ;)

7:46 am

Atalante

Tad Williams mainly writes mainstream fantasy, and very very good fantasy. But then he came out with Otherland. Which is fantasy / sci-fi / mystery / cyberpunk / every genre you could imagine rolled into one. And the result is truly amazing. *long* read. 4 books, 800 pages each-ish. Weird in the same way as Imajica is weird. But brilliant

7:47 am

hurshy

she's also one of those "eww, this tastes awful, taste it" people

7:47 am

inge

thanks . Fireworks, Salzburg, and GOOD music, cant believe my luck

7:47 am

sprite

lol hurshy... you know her well

7:47 am

Atalante

oh yes, I'll happily do that to people :)

7:48 am

hurshy

lol

7:48 am

Haz1558

You should work in Harrogate, or Bath, getting people to taste the waters.

7:48 am

Haz1558

Think eggs boiled in sea water and you get the general picture.

7:48 am

Ogdens Nut

thanks ata, that sounds great; i would love to find some good fantasy writing - almost all i come across is fearfully cliched and trite

7:49 am

Atalante

ick, I know. hidden princes, quests, bl;ah blah blah. Its so boring now every mutation has been done 27 times

7:49 am

sprite

I so need to translate my books :)

7:50 am

Atalante

ewww I know! those waters are foul! Its the same in Cheltenham. We always used to have school trips to the Pump Room adn dare each other to drink the water

7:50 am

Ogdens Nut

exactly Ata; and why must everyone have a sword?

7:50 am

sprite

a magical sword at that

7:50 am

hurshy

*cough* for freudian reasons, obviously

7:50 am

Haz1558

Anyway, off I go - keep smiling though....

7:50 am

Atalante

a talking sword, at that

7:51 am

sprite

LOL

7:51 am

sprite

bye Haz! *hug*

7:51 am

Atalante

Elric has the monopoly on talking, magical swords. Not interested after that

7:51 am

Atalante

bye Haz! *hug*

7:51 am

Ogdens Nut

Bye Haz

7:51 am

hurshy

ttfn haz!

7:51 am

sprite

ah... hurshy... like, male writing fantasy and needing huge longswords that talk and do magic have something to compensate? I am getting the picture now.

7:52 am

hurshy

i object. her eyes were astar with delight. yes?

7:52 am

Atalante

Robin Hobb is also very very good for atypical fantasy. Good guys die, etc. *And* George RR Martin.

7:52 am

hurshy

yes sprite. freud din't understand women at all, but he had his own gender pretty well taped. takes one to know one and all that.

7:52 am

harpjane

hello, isn't 147 the same number we had yesterday?

7:52 am

sprite

Robin Hobb... is he from the ships?

7:53 am

sprite

I think so, harpjane, and hi

7:53 am

Atalante

its a she actually :) She wrote 3 trilogies - the Farseer, the LIve Ship, and the Tawny Man trilogy, all vaguely following each other

7:54 am

sprite

jup, the living ships, I read those. Good writing.

7:54 am

Ogdens Nut

Which one is the best Ata? - in your opinion

7:54 am

sprite

and I stand corrected genderwise :)

7:55 am

Atalante

of the trilogies? or writers?

7:55 am

Ogdens Nut

the trilogies

7:55 am

Atalante

Farseer

7:55 am

kathw

Hi,if you are an animal lover the farseer trilogy is great

7:56 am

Atalante

I personally love the Liveship books, but Farseer books are generally better loved

7:57 am

Atalante

the Tawny Man books dont make sense till you've read the first 2 trilogies

7:57 am

Ogdens Nut

thanks Ata, I am always fascinated to hear what other aficianados rate...

7:57 am

Atalante

but you might as well start at the start, with the Farseer books

7:58 am

Atalante

but Nighteyes, the animal kathw was talking about, is such a gorgeous boy

7:58 am

inge

WEll, that was the best video ever, right up with that Estonian revolutionary song two months ago

7:58 am

sprite

I really love it that there are more fantasy fans here. I love the recommendations, I do write them down. Also with thrillers and mysteries. Jac or Ata pointed me to Patterson and I have read about 5 of his this vacation :)

7:59 am

inge

off to sudoku

7:59 am

pabtrek

I love Mercedes Lackey and Anne McCaffrey

7:59 am

Ogdens Nut

I wonder is "Robin Hobb" a pseudonym - connected with Robin Hood ?????

8:00 am

Atalante

its a pseudonym, her real name is Medgan LIndholm. She writes under that name as well

8:00 am

Atalante

Medgan?! MEGAN!

8:00 am

sprite

pabtrek: me too!

8:01 am

Ogdens Nut

wonder why she chose a pseudonym so close to Robin Hood ?

8:02 am

Atalante

I'll ask. I have my ways :)

Yeah, i love all the recomendations too sprite - especially about stuff that's not cliched tosh

8:05 am

sprite

having his crazy 30 mintes probably?

8:05 am

hurshy

spose so sprite

8:06 am

Atalante

has he just used his litterbox?

8:06 am

hurshy

i don't think so, i think it's still drying

8:06 am

Atalante

sily always goes manic after using her box

8:06 am

sprite

or he is telling you he needs his litterbox NOW

8:07 am

Atalante

from books to litterboxes in 4 lines ...

8:07 am

sprite

babble versatility

8:07 am

sprite

letterboxes litterboxes

8:07 am

hurshy

cats never need to go NOW, i don't think. i mean i've taken them on 14 hour drives and made stops where i offered them water, litterbox, food, and they'd have none of it. "we'll wait until we get there," they said.

8:07 am

Ogdens Nut

can we go back to books, he asks plaintively......

8:08 am

hurshy

babble has been known to have multiple conversational threads running at once...

8:08 am

sprite

lol Zen... now don't use that spaniel eyes on me, you know I can't help myself when you do that...

8:08 am

hurshy

not that we need to keep talking about cats' bathroom habits!

8:09 am

sprite

I have recently been diagnosed with a multiple babble personality disorder

8:10 am

Ogdens Nut

Ooh really sprite; I love it when you can't help yourself....

8:10 am

ah... shameless you!

8:11 am

Ogdens Nut

Yes, I know no shame

8:11 am

Atalante

have you met the lugubrious spaniel yet, Zen?

8:12 am

I love that in a man ;)

8:12 am

Ogdens Nut

I have not yet enjoyed that pleasure, Ata

*my icon inspires lurking*

8:14 am

Ogdens Nut

Oh, Ballymena is a big and mighty place

8:15 am

Atalante

8:15 am

Ogdens Nut

8:15 am

Ogdens Nut

No comparison Ata

8:17 am

Ogdens Nut

Anyway, any other exciting fantasy works ?

8:17 am

Atalante

have you read George RR Martin?

8:17 am

hurshy

my life...?

8:18 am

hurshy

although more of a nightmarish fantasy at times...

8:18 am

Ogdens Nut

No Ata

8:18 am

sprite

*hugs hurshy*
But you never loose your sense of humour ;)

8:19 am

hurshy

on the contrary, i loose it quite frequently :)

8:19 am

Atalante

do :)

8:19 am

hurshy

give it very free rein

8:19 am

sprite

hmz... ok, so it just comes back to you frequently?

8:20 am

hurshy

no sprite, i was teasing you, english being your second language... you meant lose... :)

8:21 am

Ogdens Nut

The only ones I have read that I rate highly are Clive Barker's and I did like Dune very much - although that was 25 years ago....

8:21 am

hurshy

to "loose" something is to set it free, let it run wild, etc

8:21 am

sprite

argh... I am doing the stupidest things today! I even messaged Ata in plain Dutch. Ok... so lose is when you do not know where it is... and to loose is to set it free. Thanks :)

8:21 am

carleekat

hi ya sprite

8:21 am

dan2bit

loose the hounds! hi all!

8:22 am

sprite

Dune was special

8:22 am

Atalante

I really think you'd like China Mieville. I'm reading the sequel to Perdido St at the moment, and its equally as wonderful

8:22 am

carleekat

( in that context sprite...u would say "to loosen" )

8:22 am

hurshy

marty is STILL running about, and the litterbox is available, so it's not because of that....

8:23 am

hurshy

no, there's a big difference between loose and loosen

8:23 am

evanonut

oh hey its a carlee!

8:23 am

hurshy

oh, he probly wants me to take a shower

8:23 am

sprite

I know 'loosen up' ...

8:23 am

carleekat

8:23 am

evanonut

who you callin a nutter?

8:23 am

carleekat

okie kokie sprite.... i'll just set quietly here again

8:24 am

Ogdens Nut

thanks Ata, I very much appreciate the "recos"

8:24 am

hurshy

you can loosen a screw, you can loosen up, that means to make less tight. and loose as an adj means less tight, but as a verb the connotation is a bit different.

8:24 am

NonoNanette

Morning Babblers

8:24 am

carleekat

that would be me evan

8:24 am

sprite

because they used to tell me often to loosen up... but apart from that... I am kinda lost :)
